The super-manual for Miata owners. The author has personally dismantled and reassembled a Miata, taking step-by-step pictures of all procedures. This, combined with his personal interest in the Miata and his years of writing and editing Haynes manuals, provides the background necessary to write the best Miata shop manual available. Coverage includes maintenance, repairs, modifications and improvements on all 1.6-liter Miatas from 1989-1994.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Only for 1.6 liter Miatas,
By Brian B. (Seattle) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mazda Miata Enthusiasts Manual (Paperback)
This book is for 1.6 liter Miatas, built from 1990-1993. It is much less useful for later Miatas. Unfortunately, this information is not provided to potential buyers of the book. The followup book, for the later 1.8 liter Miatas, was apparently discontinued soon after publication, for reasons unknown to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Helpful advice,
By Dave (Dorchester, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mazda Miata Enthusiasts Manual (Paperback)
This manual is for all 1.6 liter Miatas with pop-up headlights. It does not cover the post '98 model with fixed headlights, nor the 1.8 liter model (with pop-up headlights) for which there's a separate manual. I hope this advice is helpful - Rod Grainger, author & publisher.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Really delivers,
By Lee Davis (Statesboro, GA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mazda Miata Enthusiasts Manual (Paperback)
There should be a copy of this in the trunk of every 1.6 liter Miata. Much more user friendly than the "official Mazda" book, the Enthusiast's Shop Manual is well illustrated and clear. The idea of an enthusiast's manual is a good one -- the book's written for the skilled and involved owner, not for the professional mechanic. My copy is covered with greasy fingerprints, which is the hallmark of a good manual.
